Handling Precautions
Camera Care
This camera is a precision instrument. Do not drop it or subject it to physical
shock.
The camera is not waterproof and cannot be used underwater. If you
accidentally drop the camera into water, promptly consult your nearest
Canon Service Center. Wipe off any water droplets with a dry cloth. If the
camera has been exposed to salty air, wipe it with a well-wrung wet cloth.
Never leave the camera near anything having a strong magnetic field such
as a magnet or electric motor. Also avoid using or leaving the camera near
anything emitting strong radio waves such as a large antenna. Strong
magnetic fields can cause camera misoperation or destroy image data.
Do not leave the camera in excessive heat such as in a car in direct sunlight.
High temperatures can cause the camera to malfunction.
The camera contains precision electronic circuitry. Never attempt to
disassemble the camera yourself.
Use a blower to blow away dust on the lens, viewfinder, reflex mirror, and
focusing screen. Do not use cleaners that contain organic solvents to clean
the camera body or lens. For stubborn dirt, take the camera to the nearest
Canon Service Center.
Do not touch the cameras electrical contacts with your fingers. This is to
prevent the contacts from corroding. Corroded contacts can cause camera
misoperation.
If the camera is suddenly brought in from the cold into a warm room,
condensation may form on the camera and internal parts. To prevent
condensation, first put the camera in a sealed plastic bag and let it adjust to
the warmer temperature before taking it out of the bag.
If condensation forms on the camera, do not use the camera. This is to avoid
damaging the camera. If there is condensation, remove the lens, card and
battery from the camera, and wait until the condensation has evaporated
before using the camera.
If the camera will not be used for an extended period, remove the battery
and store the camera in a cool, dry, well-ventilated location. Even while the
camera is in storage, press the shutter button a few times once in a while to
check that the camera is still working.
Avoid storing the camera where there are corrosive chemicals such as a
darkroom or chemical lab.
If the camera has not been used for an extended period, test all its functions
before using it. If you have not used the camera for some time or if there is
an important shoot coming up, have the camera checked by your Canon
dealer or check the camera yourself and make sure it is working properly.

The figures above are based on a fully-charged Battery Pack BP-511A, no Live View
shooting, and CIPA (Camera & Imaging Products Association) testing standards.
The actual number of shots may be fewer than indicated above
depending on the shooting conditions.
Pressing the shutter button halfway for long periods or operating only the
autofocus can also reduce the number of possible shots.
The number of possible shots will decrease with more frequent use of
the LCD monitor.
The number of possible shots with the BP-514 is the same as indicated
in the table.
The number of possible shots with the BP-511 or BP-512 will be about
75% of the figures in the table for 23C / 73F. At 0C / 32F, the figures
will be about the same as in the table.
The lens operation is powered by the cameras battery. Using certain
lenses can reduce the number of possible shots.
Using the Image Stabilizer of the lens will decrease the number of
possible shots (shorter battery life).
For battery life with Live View shooting, see page 119.

The access lamp lights or blinks while the picture is taken, when
data is being transferred to the card and when data is being
recorded, read, or erased on the card. While the access lamp is lit
or blinking, never do any of the following. Doing so may damage
the image data. It may also damage the card or camera.
Opening the card slot cover.
Removing the battery.
Shaking or banging the camera around.
If the card already contains recorded images, the image number might
not start from 0001 (p.80).
If a card-related error message is displayed on the LCD monitor, remove
and reinstall the card. If the error persists, use a different card.
If you can transfer all the images in the card to a personal computer,
transfer all the images and then format the card. The card may then
return to normal.
When holding a hard disk-type card, always hold its sides. You may
damage the card by holding its flat surfaces. Compared to CF cards,
hard disk-type cards are more vulnerable to vibration and physical
shock. If you use such a card, be careful not to subject the camera to
vibration or physical shock especially while recording or displaying
images.

FAQ
The focus confirmation light <o> blinks and focus is not achieved.
Aim the AF point over an area having good contrast between light and
dark, then press the shutter button halfway (p.88). If you are too close to
the subject, move away and try again.
Y
P
O
Pressing the shutter button halfway does not focus the subject.
When the focus mode switch on the lens is set to <MF> (Manual Focus), the
camera does not focus. Set the focus mode switch to <AF> (Auto Focus).
When flash was used, the bottom part of the picture came out
unnaturally dark.
The subject was too close to the camera, and a shadow was created by
the lens. The subject should be at least 1 meter/3.3 feet away from the
camera. If a hood has been attached to the lens, remove it before taking
the flash picture.
49
Depending on the scene, position the subject toward the left or right to
create a balanced background and good perspective.
In the <1> (Full Auto) mode, while you press the shutter button
halfway to focus a still subject, the focus will be locked. You can then
recompose the shot and press the shutter button completely to take the
picture. This is called focus lock. Focus lock is also possible in other
Basic Zone modes (except <5> Sports).
Y
P
O
In the <1> (Full Auto) mode, if the subject moves (distance to camera
changes) during or after you focus, AI Servo AF will take effect to focus
the subject continuously. As long as you keep aiming the AF point on
the subject while pressing the shutter button halfway, the focusing will
be continuous. When you want to take the picture, press the shutter
button completely.

Figures for the file size, possible shots, and maximum burst during continuous
shooting are based on Canons testing standards (ISO 100 and Standard
Picture Style) using a 2GB card. These figures will vary depending on the
subject, card brand, ISO speed, Picture Style, Custom Functions, etc.
The maximum burst applies to high-speed continuous shooting. Figures in
parentheses apply to an Ultra DMA (UDMA) 2GB card based on Canons
testing standards.
If you select both RAW and JPEG, the same image will be captured in
both types at the selected image-recording quality. The two images will
be saved in the same folder with the same file numbers (file extension
JPG for JPEG and CR2 for RAW).
When D1 or D2 is selected, the LCD panel will display D.
The icons are read as follows: 1 (RAW), D1 (Small RAW1),
D2 (Small RAW2), 7 (Fine), 8 (Normal), 3 (Large), 4 (Medium),
and 6 (Small).
61
About RAW
The RAW image is the data output by the image sensor and converted
to digital data which is recorded on the card as is. You can select it from
among 1, D1, or D2. RAW written in the text will refer to
all three RAW settings: 1, D1, and D2.
With RAW images, you can use the provided software to make various
adjustments as needed. From the RAW image, the software can
develop and produce the adjusted image in the desired type such as
JPEG or TIFF.
About [8C.Fn II -2: High ISO speed noise reduction] and
RAW or RAW+JPEG images
Although [8C.Fn II -2: High ISO speed noise reduction] (p.176) settings
(Standard/Low/Strong/Disable) are applied to the recorded images, the
images without noise reduction applied are used during image playback (on
the LCD monitor and on a TV screen) or direct printing. (Noise may appear
in the images.)
Confirm the noise reduction effects or print noise-reduced images with
Digital Photo Professional (provided software).
Y
P
O
Commercial software might not be able to display RAW images. Using the
provided software is recommended.

The maximum burst is displayed even when a card is not in the camera.
Make sure that a card is loaded before taking a picture.
The maximum burst for <o> is displayed regardless of the drive mode
setting.
If [8C.Fn II -2: High ISO speed noise reduction] is set to [2: Strong],
the maximum burst will be reduced (p.176).
If the viewfinder displays 99 for the maximum burst, it means the maximum
burst is 99 or higher. If 98 or lower is displayed, the maximum burst is 98 or
lower. If you stop the continuous shooting, the maximum burst will increase.
After all the captured images are written to the card, the maximum burst will
be as listed on page 61.

In very bright light such as at the beach or ski slope on a sunny day, take
the picture promptly after mirror lockup.
Do not point the camera toward the sun. The suns heat can scorch and
damage the shutter curtains.
If you use bulb exposures, the self-timer, and mirror lockup in
combination, keep pressing the shutter button completely (self-timer
delay time + bulb exposure time). If you let go of the shutter button
during the 10-sec./2-sec. self-timer countdown, there will be a shutterrelease sound. This is not the actual shutter release (no picture is taken).
When [1: Enable] is set, single shooting will take effect even if the drive
mode is set to continuous.
When the self-timer is set to <j> or <l>, the picture will be taken
after 10 sec. or 2 sec. respectively.
The mirror locks up, and after 30 seconds, it will go back down

Using the red-eye reduction lamp before taking a flash picture can
reduce red eye. Red-eye reduction will work in any shooting mode
except <3> <7> <5>.
The red-eye reduction feature is most effective when the subject looks at
the red-eye reduction lamp, when the room is well lit, or when you go
closer to the subject.
When you press the shutter button halfway, the viewfinder
display on the bottom will gradually turn off. For best
results, take the picture after this display turns off.
The effectiveness of red-eye reduction varies depending on the subject.

brightness level of each primary color (RGB or red, green, and blue).
The horizontal axis indicates the colors brightness level (darker on the

many pixels exist for each color brightness level. The more pixels
there are toward the left, the darker and less prominent the color. And
the more pixels there are toward the right, the brighter and denser the
color. If there are too many pixels on the left, the respective color
information will be lacking. And if there are too many pixels on the
right, the color will be too saturated with no detail. By checking the

Even if [Date] and [File No.] are set to [On], the date or file No. might not

When printing with DPOF, you must use the card whose print order
specifications have been set. It will not work if you just extract images
from the card and try to print them.
Certain DPOF-compatible printers and photofinishers might not be able
to print the images as you specified. If this happens with your printer,
refer to the printers instruction manual. Or check with your photofinisher
about compatibility when ordering prints.
Do not insert into the camera a card whose print order was set by a
different camera and then try to specify a print order. The print order may
not work or may be overwritten. Also, depending on the image type, the
print order may not be possible.
Print ordering will not work with RAW images.

Safety Warnings
Follow these safeguards and use the equipment properly to prevent injury, death,
and material damage.
Y

O
213
If you drop the equipment and the casing breaks open to expose the internal parts, do
not touch the internal parts due to the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not disassemble or modify the equipment. High-voltage internal parts can cause
electrical shock.
Do not look at the sun or an extremely bright light source through the camera or lens.
Doing so may damage your vision.
Keep the camera from the reach of small children. The neck strap can accidentally
choke the child.
Do not store the equipment in dusty or humid places. This is to prevent fire and
electrical shock.
Before using the camera inside an airplane or hospital, check if it is allowed.
Electromagnetic waves emitted by the camera may interfere with the planes
instruments or the hospitals medical equipment.
To prevent fire and electrical shock, follow the safeguards below:
- Always insert the power plug all the way in.
- Do not handle a power plug with wet hands.
- When unplugging a power plug, grasp and pull the plug instead of the cord.
- Do not scratch, cut, or excessively bend the cord or put a heavy object on the cord.
Also do not twist or tie the cords.
- Do not connect too many power plugs to the same power outlet.
- Do not use a cord whose insulation has been damaged.
Occasionally unplug the power plug and use a dry cloth to clean off the dust around
the power outlet. If the surrounding is dusty, humid, or oily, the dust on the power outlet
may become moist and short-circuit the outlet to cause a fire.

Do not leave equipment inside a car under the hot sun or near a heat source. The
equipment may become hot and cause skin burns.
Do not carry the camera around while it is attached to a tripod. Doing so may cause
injury. Also make sure the tripod is sturdy enough to support the camera and lens.
Do not leave a lens or lens-attached camera under the sun without the lens cap
attached. Otherwise, the lens may concentrate the suns rays and cause a fire.
Do not cover or wrap the battery-recharging apparatus with a cloth. Doing so may trap
heat within and cause the casing to deform or catch fire.
If you drop the camera in water or if water or metal fragments enter inside the camera,
promptly remove the battery pack and back-up battery. This is to prevent fire and
electrical shock.
Do not use or leave the battery pack or back-up battery in a hot environment. Doing so
may cause battery leakage or a shorter battery life. The battery pack or back-up
battery can also become hot and cause skin burns.
Do not use paint thinner, benzene, or other organic solvents to clean the equipment.
Doing so may cause fire or a health hazard.
